Hendi Airtight Containers
Hendi Airtight Containers. Hendi catalogue from SIA La RONDE
Airtight containers help professional kitchens keep prepared ingredients and food covered between preparation, storage and service. SIA La RONDE’s GN 2/3 polypropylene containers come with lids and offer different capacities for different batch sizes. Both are suitable for food use and dishwasher washing, making them practical for routine storage and cleaning. An airtight closure helps contain the contents, while stackable construction supports organised storage in busy restaurant, hotel and catering kitchens.
Equipment and tasks
Use a lidded container for prepared ingredients, sauces or other food awaiting the next stage of kitchen work. Covering a batch is useful during chilled storage and when moving it between preparation and storage. The secure, leak-resistant lid helps contain contents during handling, and the containers can be stacked to organise covered batches vertically where the storage arrangement allows.
These containers are suitable for freezing, chilling and hot storage, supporting different stages of food handling. Built-in HACCP labels and supplied green, yellow, blue and red colour clips can help staff follow the kitchen’s own food-identification routine. Erasable markers can be used to fill in and update label details; markers are not included. Polypropylene does not absorb odours, which is useful when containers are cleaned and reused for different foods.
Parameters in use
The shallower container measures 354 × 325 × 150 mm and holds 13.5 litres. Its dimensions help staff assess the space it will occupy in storage or during preparation, while the capacity helps with planning a batch by volume. The lower profile suits contents that do not require the deeper option. The GN 2/3 format supports kitchen organisation, and dishwasher suitability fits routine cleaning work.
The deeper container measures 354 × 325 × 200 mm and holds 19 litres. The greater height provides more capacity for a larger batch in one container. Polypropylene is durable for repeated kitchen handling, and the temperature range runs from -40°C to +100°C. This range is relevant when choosing the container for freezing, chilling or hot storage. Its lid is designed to resist leakage and close airtight, supporting covered storage and handling.
Choosing a product
Choose the shallower version when its capacity suits the batch and a lower profile fits the storage arrangement. Choose the deeper version when more volume is needed and the additional height can be accommodated. Consider the food quantity, the space available and how staff will handle the covered container. The dimensions provide a practical basis for judging fit, while capacity helps avoid relying on estimates from the container’s appearance.
For either option, the lid and airtight closure are useful when food needs to remain covered during storage or handling. Stackable construction can help organise containers vertically, and dishwasher suitability supports routine cleaning. The colour clips and writable labels provide a way to identify contents according to the kitchen’s own working practice. Match the container’s capacity and dimensions to the batch and storage task to choose the appropriate depth.
